I am something of a Smitten Kitchen groupie. I love Deb's recipes, her photography and the amount of personality that comes through in her writing. This is why I was particularly tickled to discover that earlier this week Culinate published a collection of tips from her about entertaining (especially helpful for the rapidly approaching holidays).
The most helpful piece of advice for me is number 8, which recommends that you pick a quitting time in order to give yourself time to pull yourself together and enjoy your friends and family when they arrive. I always seem to be sweaty and hassled when guests arrive at my house, not exactly an attitude to make people feel welcome. Check out the article on Culinate for the rest of Deb's helpful tips!
